That would be a great idea......if we ever had an audience<br>
<br>
Maybe we need a real scoreboard similar to the TOC scoreboard to
generate interest. <br>
List by class and name with a picture of the pilot holding airplane.
post scores raw and normalized. put schedules on large posters. Maybe
there would be some interest in what we are doing if we show an
audience what we are doing..<br>

We could also use an iTouch. The apps run on either, but the iTouch
doesn't<br>
have 3G. Yes, the app could also announce the maneuvers thru a headset
to<br>
the judge; but whose voice to use?? Hmmmmmm. . . .<br>
<br>
Someone would have to figure out how to use the WiFi to download the
scores<br>
since the iTouch doesn't have 3G. . . peer-to-peer WiFi setup with the<br>
scorekeepers laptop?<br>
<br>
. . .or another, probably more manageable solution would be to use the
USB<br>
cable on the iTouch or iPhone to download the scores. That may be an
easier<br>
solution than trying to figure out how to get the app to talk over the<br>
internet or WiFi to the scorekeepers 'puter.<br>
<br>
If we don't have guys that can write the app, I know there is a
cottage<br>
industry of companies that write apps. Maybe it would be easier to hire
some<br>
long-haired hippie types to write the app.<br>
<br>
I'm interested to hear from the guys on the list that do IT stuff<br>
professionally to let me know how feasable this idea is.<br>

You could have it call maneuvers, wait for a score voice captured, then
call<br>
next maneuver.<br>

Has anyone thought about developing an app for use while judging? I was<br>
thinking something similar to the calculator app, but with additional<br>
buttons to scroll thru the maneuvers. The iPhone is small enough to
hold in<br>
your line of sight as you punch in each maneuver score, and the scores
could<br>
be forwarded with either the 3G, WiFi, or bluetooth.<br>
<br>
Obviously some issues would be having enough iPhone's show up at a<br>
contest, keeping them charged thru the day, and managing the data flow
to<br>
the scorekeeper.<br>
<br>
Could the scores be sent back to the NSRCA web site from each iPhone
and<br>
then the scorekeeper just access a web page for the results? Can the
web<br>
site host the scoring software in this manner?<br>
<br>
Of course. . .<br>
